High resolution PC parallel port ADC

This ADC is based on a MAX132 and has a resolution of 18 b plus sign (2 µV LSB !) at 16 samples/s, with four differential or eight single-ended input channels. It is based on the Maxim application note "PC printer port controls data logger" (search the Maxim site for the original article). Like for the previous ADC, a simple C program for Linux which computes the acquisition time and the mean values and variances for the four channel readings is included in the tar file below.
